About Fish, salmon, pink, raw

Pink salmon is the smallest and most plentiful of the Pacific salmon, and the one most likely to turn up in a can or an affordable fillet. Its flesh is paler and milder than the richer king or sockeye, with a softer texture that suits patties, chowders and quick weeknight cooking.

Salmon's headline nutrient is its fat — specifically the long-chain omega-3s EPA and DHA, the kind tied to heart and brain health that most diets fall short on. On top of that it is an excellent source of complete protein, vitamin B12, vitamin D and selenium. Pink salmon is leaner than farmed Atlantic salmon, so it comes in a little lower in both calories and total fat.

Canned pink salmon is one of the better-value ways to get oily fish into a week of meals, and because the soft bones are usually left in, it quietly delivers a dose of calcium too.
